Your complaints are highly exaggerated.
Anecdotal, but more than enough data to disprove your point, over the last 8 years I've used multiple dating apps, never paid a dime, and have been on somewhere around 400 first dates.
I'd also add that my match rate with bots or scammers is very low, certainly under 10%.
Are you still on dating apps? And was your initial intention to find an amazing gf, or just play the field? Not poking just curious.

Yes, I just enjoy meeting new people, not looking for anything longterm other than maybe friends.
Want to test this? Remove your image from your profiles on social media and remove your last name (i use my middle name as my surname on facebook). The key is to remove your profile image. Set your privacy to maximum, so other images of you cannot be searched. Try talking with someone. With no way to profile you, the chat bots used by the dating apps cannot have a "conversation." You will never be matched, conversations will hit walls and go in circles or you get ghosted because the chat bot has no data to use.
After your first renewal - after you have spent more money - then you may actually get to talk to a real person.
No. Never again.
